Cop based on https://docs.rubocop.org/rubocop/cops_lint.html#lintnoreturninbeginendblocks, but with the difference that it only cares about instance variables, given sometimes using return inside
begin..end
blocks is idiomatic Ruby, like when handling exceptions.Example of such case:
This cop checks for the use of
return
with a value inbegin..end
blocks in the context of instance variable assignment such as memoization. Usingreturn
with a value in these blocks can lead to unexpected behavior as thereturn
will exit the method and not set the value of the instance variable.
